false

No

You were so happy when you were young

Even happier when God gave you a child

You had a house and a job
And a man who loved you with his heart

Then your world changed

You lost your job and your home

You man left with everything you owned

You had no money

No food for your child

When you asked for help

You were turned away

Told no, no, no

The suffering got to be too much

You could no longer look into your child’s eyes

Seeing the pain and hunger in her body and soul

And you could not longer hear her ask you

“Mommy, where are we going to sleep tonight”

If only someone, anyone would have said yes

Your child would still be laughing and smiling

Playing with other children

You would have had a slight glimmer of hope

And you wouldn’t have done what you did

And two lives wouldn’t have been lost

All because of a single word

All because of “no”
